Hmm, not OK, the BackendServerIP is configured on a per-host basis...

You shouldn't (have to) do that, if I had to guess I would say that 
something is causing the hostname not to be retrieved properly on that 
PC, did you try setting the hostname in /etc/httpd/conf.d/mythweb.conf?

re: setenv hostname         "PUT_THE_NAME_YOU_WANT_HERE"

That same name should be set for BackendServerIP and any other setting 
where you set hostname to null when it should have an hostname.

It's the hostname of your pc. What do you get when you type "hostname" 
on the command line?

BTW, what do you have for the following parameters in 
/etc/httpd/conf.d/mythweb.conf: db_server, db_name, db_login, 
db_password? That's what tells MythWeb where the database is and how to 
access it so if it's wrong it could cause weird problems....

Have a nice day!
